Just a reminder that this talk/meeting will be taking place this Thursday folks! Hope to see you there! 😃

Also, following up on a fruitful discussion with @Jakub_Mitura, Carlos Castillo Passi, and @asinghvi17, JuliaHealth is planning for the first time ever to submit a proposal to Google Season of Docs! Jakub and Sneha Pandey are spearheading this effort and we are looking for feedback and ideas on the proposal draft so far here to generalize it across the JuliaHealth ecosystem as best as possible: [Google Season of Docs 2024 Proposal · sneha9231/medpipe3d-FAQ · Discussion #1 · GitHub](https://github.com/sneha9231/medpipe3d-FAQ/discussions/1)
